The "Care Less" Factor & Opening Up About Personal Life. Uncut with Asher Keddie

Today, we're joined by 5 x logie winner and one of Australia's most beloved actresses, Asher Keddie. Asher is usually more reserved when it comes to her private life but it was really refreshing to hear her say that she is feeling more and more comfortable actually speaking about herself and what her motivations and ambitions are, rather than just about the characters she plays.

Asher has a reputation of playing complex and layered, strong female characters in shows like ‘Offspring’, ‘Nine Perfect Strangers’ and she’s now back as Evelyn Jones in Season 2 of ‘Strife’, a series inspired by Mia Freedman's memoir Work, Strife, Balance. The show delves into the life of a modern woman juggling the demands of career, motherhood, and personal identity in the digital age.

We’ve had quite a lot of conversations on the podcast about the expectations of us to ‘do it all’ and make it look easy and we wanted to speak with Asher today about motherhood and the complexities of juggling her career alongside family life.

We spoke about:

  • The ‘actual’ story of how Asher got into acting (and it’s not the narrative that’s circulated)
  • Why Asher chose to stay acting in Australia rather than going to Hollywood or NY
  • The ‘care less’ factor you gain as you get a bit older and feel more confident
  • What drew Asher to Strife
  • Dealing with rejection
  • Whether the ‘expiration date’ of women is shifting
  • Mum guilt and making work decisions with family in mind
  • The evolution in her relationship in the last 14 years

Season two of STRIFE is out now on Binge and it’s brilliant!
